Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount could become one of the club’s highest earners after reportedly being offered a bumper new deal to stay at Stamford Bridge.
Todd Boehly’s purchase of Chelsea from Roman Abramovich has now been approved by the Premier League and the new Blues hierarchy look set to hand 23-year-old Mount a major new deal that would see him more than double his current wages.
Mount currently earns around £80,000 a week, despite winning the club’s player of the year award in each of the last two seasons, but the i report Chelsea are keen to both extend his current contract and give him a significant wage increase as they aim to tie down one of their biggest stars.
